The Greatest Architect

7. Body quality improvement (1)

Baron Frontera.

An ordinary rural area in the corner of the Continent of Lorasia.

The size of the troops he had was short.

No, it was a shame I couldn’t cut short.

There are five drivers in total.

100 soldiers.

Even the most mischievous vigilantes.

That was the history of the Baron Frontera mentioned in the novel “Knights of Iron Blood.”

“…… but starting today, you will be reborn as elites in this field. ”

It was a sunny morning.

Perfect weather to start construction.

In the sun, Lloyd said, looking back at the 80 men who gathered by the river.

“Here, if you spread them hard enough. ”

His hand points to one side of the river.

There was clay.

There were so many of them.

It was originally a piece of clay buried beneath the ground.

‘But I could dig it all up. Thanks to Podong.’

He snuck in here at dawn.

He transformed Podong to create a large-scale Yellow Excavation Site in just 30 minutes.

And in the morning, I brought 80 soldiers from the territory here.

It was to deliver the land of the Gathering Mill to the construction site.

He looks around at the soldiers.

“You want to know what’s going on. Why would they want to mobilize you in Nogada like this? ”

“ ……. ”

“But this is what the military used to do. What are army flowers? Work, work. ”

The ROK Army said so.

Combat training to defend your country?

It was important, but it was actually a little different.

‘Construction in multiples, construction today, and tomorrow something else is fat. When I get a chance, I just work and work, and then my military life is over. ’

It felt like I was being summoned to a major archive.

That’s why.

He wanted to give the soldiers here a taste of that, too.

Just to torture them?

It wasn’t.

‘Physical training through labor. ’

The soil is heavy.

What if I walk around with my sack full of them while I move them?

The lower body is trained from the waist to the core of the abdomen, shoulders and back, as well as the entire gluteus muscle.

Increased Stamina is also a bonus.

‘The so-called noga makes muscles stick. ’

Lloyd said, thinking so.

“Anyway, today, we will open the first small and precious shovel for the revival of the territory. Warehouse construction business for the colonists. That means you’ll be transporting the soil here to the site of construction. ”

“…… Yes, Young Master. ”

Several soldiers responded reluctantly.

Lloyd grins.

“Okay, let’s stretch first. ”

“Yes?”

“Do you want to get hurt at work? You carry too much material into a stiff body, then you move your back, rotate your knees, and it’s your loss. All right? That’s why we need to get warmed up. ”

“ ……. ”

“Follow me. One, two. ”

“Ha, one…… two……. ”

“Your voice is small. One, two! ”

“Ha… one, two! ”

Lloyd relaxes slowly in front of the soldiers.

At first, they were soldiers who were afraid.

But as Lloyd made an impression, everyone started to move around in a daze.

I’m a famous professional wreck.

Light of usual notoriety stacked up like that (?).

‘If I don’t work like this and get hurt, training is meaningless. ’

Stretching at the construction site is more important than you think.

The ground is bumpy.

Or a lot of dangerous stuff.

Like most construction sites, it was bad.

But what if you could move heavy things around in places like that with a less loose body?

Increases the chance of a safety accident.

It was Lloyd’s heart that wanted to prevent it somehow.

‘I don’t have the money to pay for the treatment. We have to be careful not to, so we have to shout out these silly slogans. ’

After finishing the stretch, he brings the soldiers together in a circle.

Then I raised my hand.

“Follow me. Put your hands up.”

Execute him!

The soldiers notice and raise their hands.

Lloyd exclaims.

“Good to wear a safety helmet! ”

Tak!

You strike your helmet with your palm.

Soldiers also followed their movements shouting for relief.

“Oh, put on a safety helmet… Good! ”

“Nice work, safety gloves on! ”

“I love wearing safety gloves! ”

“I love wearing safety boots! ”

“Real good! ”

At first glance, it was a kindergarten level of childish relief and maintenance.

In fact, when Lloyd was doing Nogada Alba in South Korea, he thought so every morning.

But now you look back?

Maybe this inspection helped you get things done safely.

I used to think that.

That’s why.

After the inspection, he did not forget to arm the soldiers’ safety rituals.

“Don’t forget the safety rules. If you think you’re gonna forget, take a look at this. ”

I heard a sign he had made in advance.

I planted it in the ground.

In the sign, this phrase was written blankly.

Workers!

Stay safe on site.

If you install it without a helmet, you can lose the cow and fix the brain a little bit. If you rush like an emperor of maneuvers, you become a man of maneuvers.

You’re bothering me with safety boots? Yes, so your big toe is ready to achieve a three-stage separation even for me.

Do you think this is all a lie? Then ignore the advice and ascend to a handful of dioxin.

you think it’s about someone else, right? ㅋ

“ ……. ”

The soldiers are lost.

Everyone unconsciously touched the safety equipment thoroughly.

“Good. When you’re ready, let’s do it. One trillion shovels of clay in a sack. Two trillion carries a sack. Execute!”

“Execute!”

Transportation work has begun.

Due to the rigorous mental education, the soldiers’ movements have been delayed.

When I saw it, I felt very happy.

‘As expected, the soldiers in the territory are relatively attentive. Good job convincing the baron. ’

Suddenly, an early morning came to mind two hours ago.

♣

“So, you want to mobilize soldiers? ”

The voice of the returning baron.

The voice contained curiosity.

It’s filled with curiosity, doubt, and confusion.

Lloyd replied, skipping breakfast.

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“I have a job for you. ”

“You want 80 soldiers to do something about your great joints? ”

“Construction.”

“Construction?”

“Yes.”

Lloyd swallowed bread and wiped his hands on the napkin.

Then I took out the prepared documents.

I gave it to the baron.

“This is a business plan. ”

“Business plan.”

“Let’s take a deep breath. ”

It was thanks to Podong last night.

I felt confident that I could start a full-scale construction business.

So I wrote a business plan all night long.

‘This business absolutely needs the Baron’s cooperation. ’

After all, it was a construction business within the territory.

Therefore, the baron’s permission, the owner of the territory, was required.

It was also economic.

‘Hiring a different worker will cost you money. ’

Labor costs.

Or per day.

It was a necessary expenditure on all construction sites.

But what if the baron were to mobilize his own private soldiers for construction?

I can pour it for free without a party.

It was because they were mercenaries hired by the baron anyway.

“So you can save quite a bit of money. ”

“What if there’s a complaint among the soldiers? ”

“A line that will give you a little bonus on a special allowance. ”

“Hmm, but Onstone Construction…. ”

“I’m sure you heard Xaviel explain last night. ”

“Yes, I did. The weird, new way of heating up rocks on the floor. But why?”

“Are you asking my intentions? ”

“Yes.”

The baron’s gaze was filled with doubts.

Luckily, it wasn’t as cold as before.

‘It must be because you drove out the debtors yesterday and gave them a bag of money. ’

The baron was able to afford interest this month.

I had no choice but to look at nature this way.

Lloyd said:

“I wanted to raise money through the colonists. ”

“Money?”

“Yes, the money to repay the debt. ”

“ ……. ”

“At first, I thought I’d walk the money in the name of special taxes, etc. But that’s ……. ”

“Must be a lot of refusal. ”

“Yes. That’s why. As little resistance as possible, we found a legitimate way. ”

“So what I came up with was a business that was called Ondol? ”

“Yes. I will earn money and the settlers will be able to have a warm winter instead of paying the right amount of money. It’s kind of a win-win. ”

“But this… ”

The baron’s suspicious gaze turns this way.

“Where did you learn that? ”

“Onstone? ”

“Yes. I’ve never seen anything like this in my life. But where did you learn to do this? ”

“I’ve thought about it for a long time. ”

“Thoughts?”

“Yes.”

Lloyd nods.

The more time like this, the more audacity.

His words continued.

“I’ve just been thinking about it for a long time. Once the stone is warmed, it doesn’t get cold. So why don’t we put a flat stone on the floor and heat the floor with hot heat underneath? ”

“ ……. ”

“But then I had a chance to actually make it, and it was better than I thought. It was warmer than I expected. ”

“The one you made for the tavern owner. ”

“Yes.”

“So, you’re thinking about turning it into a business? ”

“Yes.”

I nodded my head as if it were natural.

In fact, there was absolute confidence.

However, the baron’s gaze toward this direction still caught a suspicion that had not disappeared.

“Yeah, good plan. This plan is meticulous enough to impress me. I thought you had this knack. But… ”

The baron’s suspicious young question flew in.

“Can I trust your intentions? ”

“Yes?”

“Can I trust you? ”

“What do you mean……. ”

“Don’t tell me you’ve already forgotten that two years ago. ”

“ ……. ”

Two years ago.

That’s not even from the Blood Knights of the Novel.

Now, it was better not to answer any confusing questions.

Lloyd waits.

Luckily, the baron opens his mouth first.

“It was like this back then. Of course, there’s never been a bigger business plan like this. I still remember exactly what you said back then. And you said,” Dad, this time I’m really going to do it with heart and soul. So trust me and invest. ’I said. ”

“ ……. ”

“I’m glad you’re finally awake.” That’s why I wanted to give you the money for the vacation home. Use it as an academy tuition. But you have that money……. ”

“ ……. ”

“I’m exhausted. Completely devoid of a penny. Along with a bunch of scoundrels who’ve been hanging out for years. Getting drunk and throwing weird, jealous parties with girls. ”

…… Oh, really.

Lloyd, you bastard.

He swallowed the insult.

‘That’s right, that’s right. I can’t believe he did that. ’

Somehow the baron’s reaction seemed warm, even with the perfect business plan in front of him.

I thought it was natural that I could hardly be trusted after what I had done.

“Oh, my God, Lloyd, you piece of shit. ’

High Trolling by the Old Master of this body.

I wanted to know how to take this.

His brain spins at the speed of light.

And I finally remembered a clue to the solution.

Suddenly, thanks to his past.

‘But come to think of it, I’ve had similar accidents with much smaller scales. ’

It would have been in middle school.

I forgot the money my mom gave me at the time to pay for school.

I remember hanging out with my friends in the fish room every evening.

‘Rule from Underwatch to War Ground…. It was fun.’

But eventually I got caught by my mom.

I’m in a lot of trouble.

I had to beg for my hands and feet.

Then, after making an irreversible promise, I could be forgiven by my mom.

‘Tsk, that’s the only way now. ’

With a solution in mind, Lloyd raises his head.

I confronted the baron.

Once upon a time, he said to the baron, like the day he promised to never go to the fish room again to his mother.

“Drinks, I’m hanging up. ”

“…… what? ”

“You’re absolutely right. If you believe me this time, I will quit drinking altogether. ”

“ ……. ”

The baron’s gaze became strange.

It seemed like they were asking me if I was serious.

Or what he was up to.

Lloyd doesn’t answer.

I simply did not avoid the baron’s gaze at all.

I kept silent as if I had said so with calm eyes.

How long has it been?

Finally, the baron sighs.

“Was that really the case? ”

“Yes.”

I don’t drink well anyway.

I don’t really like it.

There was no such thing as a sense of drinking.

So, if you give up one drink and gain the baron’s trust for a little while, it would be a gain or a nuclear gain.

And finally.

“… Yes, I understand. ”

The baron nods.

He returned the business plan.

“Now that you mention it, I’ll trust you this time. I’ll talk to my clerk. In carrying out the business in this plan, you will be free to send soldiers into the territory in the future. ”

“… Thank you. ”

“This will be the last time you believe. Please don’t let me down. ”

The baron’s gaze on this side.

Somehow I felt more generous than before.

Or it seemed a little sad.

At that moment, I felt weird for a moment because I remembered my mom at the Internet cafeteria incident.

Lloyd hurriedly leaves after finishing his meal.

♣

I went through a process called…… ’

There are still many mountains to climb.

The thought made Lloyd smile bitterly.

While he was momentarily lost in thought.

It was because of the appearance of a knight approaching and protesting.

“…… As you can see, I am an honorable knight. The order to oversee the delivery of these piles of dirt cannot even be accepted by the young master. ”

The face of the knight facing this way.

He had a mean impression.

Of course, Lloyd knew the name of the article.

‘Sir Ulrich. ’

An officer who he personally appointed to lead the soldiers on the ground today.

It was one of the five knights of Baron Frontera.

He was the least skilled of them all.

When the baron fell on that subject, he was also the first to betray.

‘I stole the baron’s favorite horse and ran away. ’

It wasn’t just that.

Or spit in Lloyd’s face on the way out.

‘That’s why I’m assigning you this site today. ’

I called you here on purpose.

I’ve entrusted the soldiers with a lead.

It was because I expected him to react this way.

And he lived up to his expectations.).

Lloyd grabs the shovel without a word.

And he smiled brightly at Sir Ulrich.

“Aha. So you’re going to refuse my order? ”

“I’m not saying no. I’m asking you to respect my honor as a knight… Huff! ”

Tsk, tsk!

Lord Ulrich is about to speak out.

Lloyd wields a shovel head and strikes Sir Ulrich in the face.

‘Clearly, this territory needs to be restructured once in a while. ’

Lord Ulrich’s molars scattered in the air.

In the meantime, Lloyd’s eyes flashed coldly.
